Answer:

Explanation:

The bacteriostatic antibiotics can be defined as those antibiotics, which prevents the growth of bacteria. These keeps the growth of bacteria in the stationary phase so that bacteria cannot cause harm to the host.

The bactericidal antibiotics can be defined as those antibiotics, which kills the bacteria.

The example of bacteriostatic antibiotic is Tetracycline  that it inhibit the bacteria ribosome production of proteins. This way bacterial growth and reproduction will get restricted.

The example of bacteriocidal antibiotic is polymyxin B. It causes injuries to the plasma membrane of the bacteria which can be lethal for bacteria.

The mix of alleles from various genes that end up in the daughter cells is determined by the anaphase 1 of meiosis 1.

Chromosome segregation during meiosis is mirrored in the segregation of alleles. During anaphase, 1 of meiosis 1 homologous chromosomal separation leads to allele segregation.

Chromosomes display autonomous assortment when they are randomly split into daughter cells during meiosis.

<h3>What takes place in anaphase 1?</h3>

During meiosis I, sister chromatids remain together as homologous chromosomes separate. To appreciate the development of germ cells, it is crucial to comprehend how this odd chromosomal segregation behavior came to be. Here, we show that the pattern of chromosomal segregation during meiosis I is determined by the microtubule-kinetochore interactions that are inhibited during prophase I and the premeiotic S phase.

A preganglionic sympathetic fiber traveling to the abdomen would synapse in which structures?
juin [17]

Answer:

Answered below.

Explanation:

The nerve fibres of the autonomic nervous system that connects the ganglia to the the central nervous system are called preganglionic fibres. They are divided into sympathetic preganglionic fibres and parasympathetic preganglionic fibres and both have acetylcholine as their neurotransmitter.

The sympathetic preganglionic is shorter compared to the parasympathetic preganglionic fibres. They originate from the hypothalamus and brainstem and project to the ganglia non the spinal cord. A ganglion is a cluster of nerves outside the central nervous system.

The preganglionic sympathetic fibres originating from T1-T2 innervate the cervical ganglion which innervates the muscles of the pupils (dilators).

The postganglionic fibres originating from the preganglionic fibres of T11-L3 passes through splenic, celiac and mesenteric ganglia to innervate the kidneys and renal vessels.
